Which model do you find works best?

I wouldn’t expect bots like that to not have cameras installed. Don’t know how someone thought they could get away with trying to steal one

“Most cats fed commercial wet diets will still drink some water, but cats fed dry food will drink more as a result of the lower water content in the diet (Villaverde Haro, 2020). However, cats on a dry diet will drink less than the moisture consumed if on a wholly wet diet with a similar nutrient composition (Xu et al, 2014; Villaverde Haro, 2020).” Source: https://www.theveterinarynurse.com/review/article/moisture-matters-a-focus-on-feline-hydration

We have a water fountain going too and they hardly drink any water from there. But why leave it to chance?

Dry is really hard on cats’ kidneys because they drink so little water. Wet is a lot better but why not just feed raw? Our two cats are absolutely thriving on raw, a mix of balanced mince and whole prey, which they have been on since they were kittens. Their coats are shiny, their breath doesn’t smell and even their poop smells a lot less bad than the poop of my friends’ cats on who are on commercial dry/wet food.

A lot of info on raw feeding can be found in the Pet Fooled documentary available for free on YouTube. Happy to answer any questions about raw feeding too, good luck!!

If I were to hazard a guess… long queues at the GP, not knowing if a lady doctor would be the one they see, or if she will judge them for their life choices…

There’s a group on Facebook called “Feline Diabetes Support Group” that guides cat owners through this difficult journey. Many cats go on to have high qualities of life. Good luck!!

Wonder how the world population would look like if this was true

[–] zhaozhaoer@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Aaaaaa they’re all so cute 🥰

To me this is just semantics. A baby is born. Gender assigned at birth = female = biological woman = cis woman. I hope I didn’t offend as it wasn’t my intention; it wasn’t supposed to imply that trans women aren’t women in any way.

But I am not transgender and I would like to be supportive and understand how to best support our trans sisters and also understand what is considered hate speech. I honestly don’t understand why cis woman is an okay term to use while biological woman isn’t.

So thank you for sharing your point of view, and I would also appreciate it if you could share resources about how to improve my understanding/be more supportive of trans people.

I feel like we are just splitting hairs here. I probably wasn’t careful enough with my use of the words “gender” and “sex”.

Maybe I wasn’t clear, but I support trans rights. Yes, trans women are women. Trans men are men.

But my problem is with OP’s statement that biological women don’t exist. Just because trans women are women too, doesn’t mean that biological women don’t exist. Or that using “biological women” as a term is discriminatory against trans women.

My intention of pointing out the difference in physical traits between biological women and biological men is to just show that if there’s no biological women, then there won’t be any biological men. So then there won’t be a difference in the way humans experience the world (through the different physical traits we have). I hope that makes more sense.
